The Garden Route is one of the world's ultimate road trips. Geographically, the official route spans a stunning 200-to-300-kilometer stretch along South Africa’s southeastern coast, officially beginning in Mossel Bay (Western Cape) and ending at the Storms River Mouth in Tsitsikamma National Park. Start your journey in Cape Town & explore this route on your own time... Book a return flight from Gqeberha to complete your Route.

The road trip from Windhoek to Sossusvlei is one of Africa’s most iconic & visually stunning self-drive journeys. It transitions from the central Khomas Highlands down into the dramatic, red dune fields of the ancient Namib Desert. While the distance appears short on paper (around 300–350 km), the driving conditions on gravel roads dictate a slower pace.

Continue your drive from Sossusvlei (Sesriem) to the coastal town of Swakopmund is a stunning journey that takes you through the heart of the Namib-Naukluft National Park. As you drive north, you will watch the massive red sand dunes completely transform into vast gravel plains, moon-like rock formations & eventually, the cool, misty Atlantic coast.
